Great to watch the locals at their craft. Such a lot of work goes into these Batik products you cant go home empty handed. Well worth a look at and to purchase some of the handicraft work.

We liked being able to see the Batik work being done. Of course there was plenty of items to choose from in the retail outlet. Beautiful designs.
